The company uses high-low method to calculate utility costs. This is one of the methods to estimate cost.

The variable cost per unit for utilities will be calculated by the formula given below,  

The variable cost per unit for utilities = (High Cost - Low cost) / (High units - Low units)  

= $8,100 - $4,530 / 2,700 - 750

= $1.83 per unit.
